s/ Titulo (após L’Hussard de T. Géricault), 2007

Pedro Valdez Cardoso (b. 1974, Lisbon) is a Portuguese sculptor. Throughout his work, The Raft of the Medusa plays an important and recurring role. Between 2007 and 2014, he made various sculptures in which the dramatic composition of the painting is obviously recognizable. The conceptual phase of politics and poetry, which Géricault introduced, was a determining factor for his own modus operandi as an artist.
